Question Fuel pump and sender

I'm installing a LS1 in a 1957 Chevy Bel Air.
The tank is going to be replaced with a new rebuild and I don't want it more than 8" deep.
Is here anybody who knows what I can use instead of the original 10" deep Camaro -99 pump and sender?

If the resources are limited over there, you could have your tank built with a baffle and a pick up tube, and then use a frame mounted inline pump. That way the tank can be made any size you want without worrying about fitting a specific pickup assembly.
Or, there are custom tank makers over here that can build your tank how you want it and have a custom intank pump set up.

I have a friend who works for a company which manufactures tank trailers and they can build me whatever I want. I have drawed a tank but need a custom intank pump with a maximum deep of 8". Best would be complete with a sender.
Do you know where I can get this?

Company called Tanks makes retro fit senders for most anything. I use them for swap cars all the time.
